I’m missing WNBA All-Star this year for the first time in forever. One of the things I didn’t expect to miss, but that I now realize has become a massive part of the experience, is the merchandise released in the host city at the team shops and the fan expo. I’m sure many of the items from the collections and brands that were in Indiana this weekend will become available online early next week, but, for those of us watching at home with an itchy spending finger, these are my faves that you can buy online right now.

The Shoe

Side view of the Nike Sabrina 3 basketball shoes featuring a vibrant design with orange, yellow, and black colors.

Nike released colorways for the A’One and DBook, but for my money, it’s the Sabrina 3 “Bring the Heat”. I like that the black is limited to the Swoosh, although I’d consider swapping out the orange shoestrings for a black set. I also appreciate the overall design of her kicks.

The Shirts

Black t-shirt featuring the text 'Pay Us What You Owe Us' in white font, with the WNBPA logo at the bottom.

The most essential tee of the weekend, if you’ve long bet on women, is the one that the players wore during warmups. Collective Bargaining negotiations have been contentious, but our faves remain union strong and unified.

Black t-shirt featuring an image of a basketball player in action, with the text 'CAN'T BLOCK MY SHINE.' prominently displayed.

I’m digging the launch of “The Floor is Ours” campaign, and A’ja Wilson gets the best motto: You Can’t Block My Shine.

The shirt prominently displays the phrases 'ON' and '#$%' alongside logos of the WNBA and Playa Society against a light blue backdrop.

The stars of the weekend have been Courtney Williams and Natisha Hiedemann, aka the StudBudz. If you’ve become a new fan of their shenanigans, this Playa Society tee is the one for you, even though it’s not officially an All-Star drop.

Orange t-shirt featuring the slogan 'EVERYONE WATCHES THE WNBA' on the front and a logo on the back.

Also of interest is the WNBA x Togethxr collaboration, which I have not yet seen worn in Crypto.com Arena. I may have to get this one.

Sorry, She’s an All-Star.

The Hats

I didn’t love the joints from Lids and Fanatics this year, but New Era came through. All of their WNBA collection is great, but these two would’ve made it into my luggage this year if I were there.

The Collectibles

The Fever aren’t my team, so I’m mostly avoiding things that scream Indiana colors or affinity, but this Serigraph is worthy of hanging on any basketball fan’s wall.
